Day 8 and I should celebrate Hee Hee that rhymed

So I am a member of Low Carb Friends as I have stated so many times. The women on here are completely amazing in terms of support. I couldn't ask for a better of bunch of new friends. Well one of the groups on LCF is a weigh in group. We weigh in every Monday.

After work and eating dinner I was so tired and it used to be that I would simply make excuses about not going but I knew I had these ladies waiting for my weigh in because they wait for everyone's weigh in. So I got off my butt and went to the hospital to weigh in. (Which if you only knew was super huge) I hardly ever leave my house after working all day.

I go to the hospital I step on the scale and it says 418.9 I looked at Erica and I looked back down as if I must be reading this wrong. I look down and sure enough it said 418.9. I lost 25 pounds in a week. I was in complete disbelief. My daughter gets on the scale and it says 292 she has lost 7 pounds in a week.

The whole way home I kept asking my daughter did you see it? Did you see the scale? OMG Did you see the scale? She kept saying yes I did Mommy that is amazing! I said it had to be wrong right? It just had to be wrong there is no way I lost that much that quickly she said we should have taken a picture of it. I told her with all of the lack of support I have received I just don't want to tell anyone, with the exception of my husband and the LCF ladies. She said why I said because I just don't I would rather let them see it.

I get home and I didn't blurt out the weight to my husband. He asked me I tell him and he says nothing. No congratulations no nothing. I can't even tell you how hurtful this was. Now he says that he couldn't remember what my starting weight was so he didn't realize that I had dropped and he apologized profusely and said how proud of me he was. It still hurt. It was still very painful. But again I will be using this as well to fuel me to keep going because I'm going to get healthy. I'm doing it!!
